TV NEWS FOR FEB 21 – BRITTANY ROBERTSON AND THE SECRET CIRCLE

Looks like Brittany Robertson isn’t leaving our TV’s anytime soon.

The 20-year-old actress just landed a role in the CW’s Secret Circle, based on the series of books by L.J. Smith. (Psst, L.J. Smith also wrote The Vampire Diaries).

Britt will play the new girl in town, who discovers she has supernatural powers. Not only is she a teen witch, but a member of a secret coven that will stir up some age-old battles between good and evil.

But, Britt’s casting in the new show is in “second position”, EW reports. Looks like Life Unexpected is on the bubble for renewal. The CW has not yet decided on the show’s fate.

I’ve never heard of Brittany Robertson or Life Unexpected. But If she is being considered for Secret Circle than I doubt Life Unexpected will get renewed for a new season. Hmm not sure what I feel about the CW picking up another one of LJ Smiths books. I mean I’m all for books being turned in to TV  shows and Movies but if the same network is picking up stoylines from the same author I would be afraid that they all would start to have the same feel.

What do you think of the CW picking up The Secret Circle? What do you think of Robertson getting a role? Have you seen her other work?
